Description:

For a new game, this mod will add the new legendary location - Kriegsgeist: Fort of Ghastly Scream - to map generation. For an existing save, if that save haven't had the new legendary location, this mod will automatically generate one when you load that save. As you enter the location, an event will show up letting you to choose which boss to fight (knight, wizard or both) or fall back to exit the location.

Like i said this legendary location has 2 bosses, both are named "Kriegsgeist" but has different abilities. The first boss is a geist knight wields an ethereal sword that's capable of bypassing any armor, splitting shield like butter. The second boss is a geist wizard, you may not guess it but the loot from this boss is its skull. Both bosses has 1 thing in common, their base stats are based off of your brothers in battle. Be careful as the better the stats of your strongest brother the better stats of the boss. I don't want to spoil much about the battle but i'll give you a head up about the signature ability of each boss.

-  Geist knight: Each time he takes damage, a fragment of him will spawn somewhere around your brothers with its max hp is equal to the damage you deal to the boss. You have to kill that fragment fast as the boss can't die as long as there is at least 1 fragment on the map. After 1-2 rounds, the boss will attempt to absorb his fragments, regain hp equal to whatever the hp those fragments still have. The boss also teleports upon getting hit pretty much like alp (might be too much for vanilla player, i might change this in next update)

- Geist wizard: he likes to play with illusion and the fight is all about stalling players with his illusions and chipping player's hp with DoT effect. At the end of the first round, he will teleport and keep a distance ~2 tiles away from player party and summon a number of illusion that look exactly like him. Every time this boss ends his turn, he and all of his illusions will "shuffle" around. The illusion doesn't have any action thus will immediately skip its turn but it still has a zone of control (ZoC) and will attempt to land a free hit if you walk in that ZoC, the illusion will disappear upon getting attacked by melee attack (hit or miss) or being hit by a ranged attack (good luck with that as it's treated as a geist so 5% to hit with ranged weapon) . There is no way to differentiate between the real one and  the illusions (i have spent a great deal of backend stuffs to make sure this) and those illusions can only respawn when you land a hit to the boss. I recommend using polearm for this fight, you will understand why later.

For the loot, the ethereal greatsword from geist knight has the ability to ignore armor, always hit and instantly kill any geist. However, it's cursed so it will cause a hand injury to anyone trying to unequip it. The skull is quite more unique, it's an offhand tool that gives you a passive buff depending the amount of soul point (SP) it has. The SP can be gained as the wearer kill an enemy while equip the skull to your offhand. Also the skull let the wearer have access to 6 magic skills that consume SP to use and unlock.
